.KINGSTON, ON, Jan. 10, 2012 /CNW/ - Murgor Resources Inc. (MGR: TSX-V) announced today that it has completed a 600-line kilometre helicopter-borne VTEM survey on its 100% owned Moose Lake Mineral Exploration Licences located approximately 40 kilometres south of the Snow Lake Mining District in Manitoba.

"The Moose Lake property covers a large, virtually unexplored area of very favourable ground in the Flin Flon Belt," said André Tessier, President and CEO of Murgor Resources. "Murgor continues to strategically work its grassroots exploration projects, such as Moose Lake, while the advanced-stage exploration projects at Golden Arrow, Wim and Hudvam anchor the Company's portfolio. More advanced exploration work will follow at Moose Lake once we receive and interpret the final results of our VTEM survey."

About the Moose Lake Property

The Moose Lake property covers 198,394 hectares of highly favourable volcanic rocks south of the Snow Lake mining district below 50 to 100 metres of Paleozoic sedimentary rocks; a setting similar to that of the VMS Venture's and HudBay's Reed Lake Copper Deposit located approximately 40 kilometres to the north of the property. Other notable deposits in the immediate area include the Sylvia Deposit (1.45 MT @ 2.03% Cu & 1.60% Zn) and the Kof Zone (257,000 T @ 2.03% Cu) located respectively 1 and 6 kilometres west and north of the property (the resource at Sylvia and Kof is historical and not 43-101 compliant).

The Flin Flon belt is the largest paleo-proterozoic VMS district in the world and the richest Greenstone Belt in Canada per square kilometre. The Flin Flon Belt is host to more than 30 past and current producing mines, rich in copper, zinc, gold and silver. Past and current reserves of these deposits contain in excess of 200 million tonnes of polymetallic mineralization.

Golden Arrow Update: Murgor resumed its drilling at the Golden Arrow project in early January 2012 with two diamond drill rigs, testing the deep extensions of the known mineralized zones. The Company will be in a position to update its drilling results very shortly.
